Great private campsite!
Our experience here was amazing! The host is super helpful and responsive and the site was absolutely beautiful! The tents are amazing and comfortable with a great view of the lake and we had a great time paddle boarding and swimming out in the lake with our dog. 10/10 would definitely recommend & we will be back for sure!

Positive: the campsite is very well maintained with great lake access and beautiful views. Chris was very nice and accommodating; and he let us borrow his kayaks, which was really awesome. It was quiet and we were the only people at the site while we stayed, so there was great privacy.
Negative: we felt mislead by the ad. The listing specifically states there are cooking utensils, cookware, and cutlery and there was none. We received a camp checklist a few days before our stay and essentially you need to bring everything to cook/clean. In addition, the A/C, TV, and microwave did not work. We expected these to work as they were all shown in the pictures. For $200/night, we feel that these should have been included or it should have been noted in the listing description that they did not work. Luckily we saw the review below before we left, so we were able to somewhat prepare; however, had we known none of this was included, we would have booked something else. We did not see the review or receive the itinerary until after our money was non-refundable.
Overall, the campsite was beautiful and we enjoyed being out in nature; however, we are not sure if we would book again as we felt it was very expensive for what we actually got in the RV. Had we know there was no cookware or A/C, we would have booked a traditional tent site or taken a closer look at the other Montauk glamp sites. We would recommend this site if you know this and are okay with it!

This is a high quality site and carefully considered lodging.
Summer time is quite hot in the valley.
This would be a beautiful and comfortable place in all other seasons.

Overall we did the best we could to enjoy our stay but I will share some details that might be overlooked before booking. Some positives were that the campsite had good lake access, has a grill outside, and has a working toilet. Now some details that you might miss. This campsite has about 6 other RVs parked in the same area so not too private. Luckily none of the other RVs were booked at the time we stayed. I donât think itâs 2WD accessible especially in the rain. They did provide towels and pillows but besides that I feel like there was nothing else in this RV. The shower would take hours to drain and was even overflown at one point when we were using the sink from the kitchen. One detail that I was pretty upset about was the fact that there was no cooking utensils whatsoever even though itâs mentioned in the listing. That was one of the reasons I booked this RV because we didnât want to lug a bunch of cooking utensils, plates, cups, napkins, etc. The host instead emailed us 1 day prior to our stay with a huge list of things we should bring. I feel like these shouldâve been in the listing. They had no sheets/blankets, no napkins, no tv, no working outlets, half of the lights didnât work, no ac/fan, nothing for cooking, and on top of that the bathroom stunk really bad. We had to keep the door to the bathroom open the whole time because the RV smelled like dirty water. In the end I would not recommend this site especially if itâs over 90 degrees.

Awesome experience
We really enjoyed our time at Montauk! The Travel Trailer is a newer experience for them, so we had no neighbors and essentially had the place to ourselves! The dogs loved free roaming the property and swimming in the lake. Chris says they have big plans for this experience and I am excited to see what they have in store. We definitely plan on coming back next year.

Private sites with lake views
We loved our stay at the tent site #2 at Montauk Camp. The directions to camp were easy and we got there without any trouble. The camp site amenities were exactly as advertised. The tents have a bed with solar powered batters to charge your devices.
The outdoor shower and toilets were perfect. Folsom lake is a very short hike from the site and the host had kayaks and paddleboards for rent!
The tent site was very private with amazing views of the lake. We felt very safe during our stay.
